Haha, that was a good joke. NX handheld is coming next holiday season, but NX home console is coming in late 2017.

Zelda Wii U is a Wii U exclusive. Deal with it.


I deal with the fact that Zelda HD was delayed a full year to release an NX version next year. It seems like you can't and still believes in fairy tales like NX homeconsole coming until 2017 because "5 year cycle" and leaving their most expensive project ever in the lowest userbase.

Are you really that close-minded to think the game was delayed to release on a console that is not launching before 2017?

Man.... I can't help you then.

Nintendo delayed that game because of the response they got after the VGA presentation. They wouldn't delay a big system seller that generates a huge amount of money for any reason else.

And the 3DS is almost dead. Sales go down and sales will be terrible in fiscal year 2016/17. That's why they plan to replace it first. Wii U still sells constantly 3 million units per year and has several big IPs (that weren't on the system yet) coming in 2016 -> more hardware sales.

All the 3DS gets are either ports (HW Legends) or successors to titles that are already available on the system (Mario & Luigi, Fire Emblem, Pokemon, Animal Crossing, Zelda) -> no rising hardware sales in the future.

Also do you know how to sell a system? With Smash Bros. and Mario Kart at launch. Both games aren't ready for 2016 NX release.

Just deal with it. Nintendo can't fullfill all of your dreams. They are a company that needs to make profit for their shareholders. And they don't make profit by releasing another flop in 2016. Nintendo is also not the type of company that releases their products incomplete or rushed (unless it's called "Mario Tennis: Ultra Trash"). Look at Zelda, Star Fox or Miitomo. All were delayed to reach Nintendo's quality standards. They won't push out new hardware just they can replace the Wii U. And after the flop that is called Wii U they need enough time to make a completed product and to promote this product. 2016 is just not happening. It would be nonsense for a company like Nintendo. Rather they try to abandon the 3DS, because it's more lucrative.
